42 Rauhori Road, Makarau

Welcome to a truly exceptional lifestyle with equestrian facilities, where scale, privacy, and natural beauty combine to create a property unlike any other. Spanning an impressive 59.59 ha with sub-division potential this picturesque holding offers the perfect balance of productive grazing land and pristine native bush. Approximately 30 hectares are grazable, while the remaining 30 hectares showcase breathtaking native forest, including covenanted areas protecting magnificent Totara, Rimu, Nikau, Puriri, Kahikatea, and Kauri trees. At the heart of the property sits the substantial main residence, thoughtfully designed for family living with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two spacious living areas, and a dedicated office nook. The home provides the ideal balance of comfort and functionality, creating spaces for both entertaining and everyday living. A free standing wood burner with wetback system provides plenty of warmth during those cooler months. Complementing the main home is a fully self-contained second dwelling, offering three bedrooms, an office and a spacious living area, with expansive decking that captures elevated rural views across the surrounding landscape. Whether accommodating extended family, guests, or providing an additional income stream, this second residence adds incredible versatility. For those with a passion for horses, the equestrian facilities are outstanding. A professionally sized 27-metre by 60-metre arena is complemented by three covered yards with lighting, allowing year-round use, while a two-bay shed with separate tack room/workshop provides excellent storage and operational convenience. The lifestyle amenities continue with a heated salt water pool and cabana, creating the perfect setting for summer entertaining and relaxation. Nature lovers will appreciate the abundance of wildlife that calls this property home. Wild deer can often be seen roaming through the native bush and open pasture, providing a unique connection to the land and a true sense of wilderness rarely found so close to modern conveniences. This is more than a property, it's a private lifestyle retreat, with an equestrian haven offering space, opportunity, and an extraordinary connection to nature. Calling all farmers, equestrian enthusiasts or nature lovers here is an opportunity that wont last.
